Chapter 505: Der Spiegel (I)
As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, he noticed that several people in robes were asking a farmer on the edge of the ridge in the distance, writing something with pen and ink as he asked.
"Who's that?" Cao Cao asked, pointing at those people.
"The last general is going to call them!" Xu Chu arched his hand and said, Cao Cao nodded, and Xu Chu stepped forward and brought those scholars to Cao Cao.
Knowing that it was Yanzhou Mu Cao Cao in front of him, those scholars couldn't help but be a little frightened.
They are not celebrities like Bian Rang, they are just from a humble family, and they have never seen a big man like Cao Cao.
Cao Cao looked at them with their entourage, which was holding pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and asked, "Who are the children of the family, why are you here?" ”
Several people glanced at each other, and the leader said, "After the end of school, I entered Dongjun Hanji and saw Cao Yuanjun, we were favored by Bian Gong, recruited into the Mingjing Newspaper Museum, and served as an interviewer. ”
Han Ji was actually also Bian Rang's student, but he knew that Cao Cao and Bian Rang were unhappy before, so he didn't say it.
As soon as Cao Cao heard that these people were Bian Rang's people, he couldn't help but squint suspiciously, this side let him not deal with him before, and now he sent these people, wouldn't he be preparing to do something.
"Can you give me a look at the manuscript?"
Han Ji immediately handed the half-written manuscript to Xu Chu on the side, Cao Cao took it from Xu Chu's hand and took a closer look, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but bend slightly.
"Although the rhetoric is not flowery, it is also appropriate, and it can be the secretary of the state capital." Cao Cao handed the manuscript to Xun Yan and others on the side, Xun Yan and others passed it on, and found that the manuscript was quite positive for Cao Cao's evaluation of Tuntian, and felt that this move was a good act of the government, and he also proposed that the people should be emulated to carry out military tun, so as to reduce the tax pressure.
As early as the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, 600,000 people were sent to Tuntian in Shangjun, Shuofang, Xihe, Hexi and other places, which was regarded as the earliest construction corps.
Therefore, it is not surprising that these scholars from poor families can come up with the idea of military tun.
Cao Cao did have such an idea, many of his old subordinates were from Yuzhou or Yangzhou, and there was no industry in Yanzhou, and the so-called constant production was perseverance, and it was a matter of time before he helped these people buy real estate in Yanzhou, so he was very happy to see such a manuscript published in the newspaper.
It seems that he suspects that Bian Rang is a little villainous.
Cao Cao secretly reviewed himself, and then said to Han Ji and others, "After all, the newspaper is not a place for heroes, I am in Yanzhou in a shortage of talented people, if you want to find fame in the future, you can come to the state capital to serve." ”
Han Ji was immediately overjoyed, the so-called learned literature and martial arts, sold to the emperor's family, he naturally hoped to get an official and a half-job, and it was best to become two thousand stones in the future, so that his family would become a member of the scholar clan from a poor family, so he thanked him, "Thank you Ming Gong for your appreciation, the student will come to serve after he completes his studies!" ”
Cao Cao waved away Han Ji and the others, thought for a while, and asked Xun Yan, "Xiu Ruo, newspapers are popular in Qingzhou, and Wu'er has proposed to build Yanzhou newspapers several times, what do you think?" ”
Your eldest son's idea, can I say it badly?
Xun Yan immediately praised, "Gongzi's strategy is very good, Ming Gong wants to reform Yanzhou's old evils, it is inevitable to issue a new policy, I see that every time Qingzhou releases a new policy, there will be famous people in the newspaper to interpret the reasons and intentions of these new policies, and will also predict the results, so that the officials can not hide it, and the people know the intentions." ”
"Hmm... I heard that after Bian Rang opened the Spiegel Newspaper Museum, many Qingliu celebrities and celebrities are like-minded, so it can be seen that this method is indeed a good way to attract talents, so you and Ang'er will be responsible for this matter. ”
Xun Yan gave up his promise.
Cao Cao pointed to the distance and said, "Let's go, let's go over there and have a look." ”
Cao Cao continued to inspect the affairs of Tuntian, while Han Ji returned to Chenliu County after writing the manuscript.
Bian Rang did not put the newspaper in Juancheng, which had become the seat of Yanzhou governance, but placed it in Chen Liu, and he naturally did not believe in Cao Cao after the eunuch.
Of course, as a celebrity, it is natural that he can't put such an elegant place as a newspaper in the city, so Bian Rang chose to make his own newspaper in a manor in the slippery pavilion outside Chen Liucheng.
This manor, with a river running through it, is a good thing to do when you have leisure time to fish and row.
"Look, this article is very beautiful, and it should be spread all over the world." Bian Jean took a piece of paper and handed it to the waiter next to him, and the waiter passed the article to the others.
In this room, there are more than ten tables, all of which are famous people who have been recognized by the side, and the articles they select will be published in the newspaper and circulated all over the world, and the scribes who wrote the articles will also become famous and prosperous from then on.
"Bian Gong, Han Ji has returned from Dong'a."
Bian Rang looked up and smiled, "Let them come in, all the way, I don't know what kind of interesting article I wrote." ”
Han Ji and the others entered, saluted Bian Rang, and then took out the written manuscript and handed it over and said, "Sir, we went to Dong'e, inspected Dong'e's tuntian on the spot, and also asked the farmers in Tuntian, local officials and scholars, and formed this article. ”
Bian Rang nodded, opened it and looked at it, the more he looked at it, the more he frowned, and finally threw the manuscript at Han Ji's feet, humming "Dare to show me such an article!" ”
Han Ji was a little panicked by what he said, and asked, "Sir, what did we write wrong?" ”
"Look at your article, it's full of words of praise and virtue, I'm asking you to write Cao Cao, not letting you learn Cao Cao, how did you not learn it, the sycophancy of the eunuch party is a good way to learn!"
Han Ji hurriedly said, "The teacher is above, and what the students write is the truth!" ”
"The truth? Let me ask you, you said in your article that the displaced people were resettled in Tuntian, so did any officials take advantage of it, and if they gained it, they would be granted good land, and if they were not profitable, they would be granted bad land? ”
Han Ji hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "I have indeed heard of this. ”
The king of Hades is good to see, the little ghosts are difficult, and even in the service-oriented government of later generations, there are occasional flies, let alone such a troubled era as the end of the Han Dynasty.
"Let me ask you again, the plough needs livestock to do its full job, and the government lacks oxen and inferior horses, do the officials force the people to plough the fields for cattle and horses?"
"This... Indeed it is. ”
"Let me ask you again, after Dong'a Qingtian, are there any big clans who are forced to dismiss their clansmen?"
Han Ji wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded.
I have to say that it makes sense for Bian Rang to be called a celebrity, and he is really clear about many things.
"Then why don't you write!!" Bian Jean asked as he patted the table.
"But these flaws are not hidden, the law of Tuntian does make the government and the people convenient, and these things also have the helplessness of the government."
"Flaws? I think it's a profit and a fool! Didn't Cao Apo give you any benefits to let you speak for him like this! Bian Rang became even more angry when he heard this, and slapped the table directly.
